I dont know what the word unalive means
Having views similar to nazis is only bad if those views themselves are bad. Guilt by association is so boring and tribal.

Yes, I am, and anyone who wants humans to be outcompeted or absorbed is clearly an enemy of the human race.

What part of the law doesnt apply to them that applies to anyone else?

These agents have not caused any damage at all like your analogy.

They have not caused damage (or enough that a counter party found it worthwhile to sue). They have to pay if they actually cause damage AND someone sues them. Clearly these conditions have not been met, but somehow people feel like some third party (the state?) should just punish OpenAI because of vague feelings.
If you're referring to DHH, nothing indicates he is a nazi. At most, he holds some fairly normal anti immigration and right wing views. Diluting the term nazi like that is bad.

Because you've just told the 8 billion humans alive you don't care about their lives. You declared yourself our enemy.
Surprised it took that long for a Godwin.
But does this swedish Party say any things like that?
So?
I'm sure a lot of smart people have weighed all the options and decided that this one was the best.
They got a democratic mandate.
It could be that the us govt doesn't want china to execute distillation attacks and narrow the gap.
Why would Apple do that?

But they also determine the token prices. What you describe could also be true if they take a 5x profit margin on api tokens and 2x margin on subscriptions.

Do you think the book is fascistic? If so, maybe it’s helpful to explain why.

Do you have a good source or book (preferably) to start learning more about scientific body building?
Greg Egan's Quarantaine explores this idea.

Some people may genuinely care about voter suppression, whether you think it's a non-issue or not. I wouldn't be so quick to assume malice.

Do you have any source for your claim that "grams of butter", "grams of flour" and "grams of sugar" do not all refer to the SI unit "gram"?

I live in Europe and have always weighed exactly 100g on the scale, whether I was asked for 100 grams of butter, sugar or flour.
